Of course not, but still, the building that hosts our office was built at that time. ;) However, this post should simply tell you that Qafoo, the company by <a href="http://kore-nordmann.de">Kore</a>, <a href="http://manuel-pichler.de">Manuel</a> and me, has started on July 1st officially and that our company website went online just some minutes ago. You can now find all of <a href="http://qafoo.com">our services online</a>, nicely presented in a fresh green. And of course, you can send us a message right away, if you desire training, consulting or support anyway related to PHP software quality.

After the amazing success of our design contest for the <a href="http://qafoo.com">Qafoo</a> logo, <a href="http://manuel-pichler.de">Manuel</a>, <a href="http://kore-nordmann.de">Kore</a> and me decided to run another contest for our website layout. Since we were quite satisfied with <a href="http://12designers.com">12designers.com</a> as the platform, we went for that one again.

It's been a while since I blogged about the company <a href="http://kore-nordmann.de">Kore</a>, <a href="http://manuel-pichler.de">Manuel</a> and me are currently founding: <a href="http://qafoo.com">Qafoo</a>. In the meantime we made a public contest for our logo. The contest ended on Monday and we today elected a winner. Here we go with the official logo for <em>Qafoo - passion for software quality</em>:<a href="http://qafoo.com"></a>

As announced <a href="/opensource/blog/0725_goodbye_ez_systems_hello_world.html">earlier</a> in this blog, <a href="http://manuel-pichler.de/">Manuel</a>, <a href="http://kore-nordmann.de/">Kore</a> and me are in the process of founding our own company. Now it's time to present the name we have thought out for this operation. We are <a href="http://qafoo.com">Qafoo</a> <strong>- The PHP quality
ninjas</strong>. Isn't that cool? :) So, let me try to explain the origin of this name here. Feel invited to comment on our idea and to give us some inspiration.

Yesterday the latest stable release of the <a href="http://ezcomponents.org/">eZ Components</a> project, number <a href="http://ezcomponents.org/resources/news/news-2009-12-21">2009.2</a>, was rolled. For this release I worked on support for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument">OpenDocumentText</a> (ODT) in the Document component. In this article I show you how you can import OpenDocumentText documents and convert them into any of the supported formats of the component, how to export data into ODT and how to apply styles to the generated documents. You will also see how ODT and PDF can be exported with the very same styling information to make them look almost identical.

Derick was always bitching at me when doing releases for the huge amount of
time needed to process the Webdav components sub directory. We always
supposed, that the Subversion performance issues here resulted from the
Webdav test suite, which consists of an awful lot of small test files and
some sub-directories. I finally found the time to refactor the tests and
the performance improvement is astonishing.Tobias SchlittWed, 03 Jun 2009 23:07:22 +0000Identity Map patternhttp://schlitt.info/opensource/blog/0706_identity_map_pattern.html
I first read about the identity map pattern in Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture by Martin Fowler. The pattern affects the data access layer of an application and helps to avoid inconsistencies in data objects of your application.Since yesterdays alpha release of the PersistentObject package in eZ Components, we have an implementation of Identity Map. In this article I want to give you a rough overview on the pattern itself and show you how you can test and use the functionality of PersistentObject.

We just released the 2008.2 release of the eZ Components yesterday.
This stable release received 6 months of care by the core developers and
many contributors. Thanks to all of you for the great work!My tasks for 2008.2 were dedicated to the Webdav component. This package
allows you to easily integrate WebDAV access features into your
applications. For the new release I implemented support for authentication
and authorization, which allows easy integration into your existing
environment. In addition, I added lock support, so the Webdav component now
complies to WebDAV class 2 (and almost 3).Tobias SchlittTue, 06 Jan 2009 09:17:08 +0000eZ Conference: A technical view on eZ Components slideshttp://schlitt.info/opensource/blog/0604_ez_conference_a_technical_view_on_ez_components_slides.html
I'll be giving a session on the technical aspects of eZ Components in
about 20 minutes at the annual eZ Conference here in Skien, Norway. Here
are my slides of this presentation for download. It also includes code
examples for many new features in our most recent release 2008.1 (hot,
just fron Tuesday). I'll write some more about that later.Tobias SchlittWed, 19 Nov 2008 22:29:46 +0000
